and accordingly assesses the costs of tool production within their behavioral contexts. The results revealed that the costs and benefits of technological choices were not equally perceivable to the decision makers; the Hemudu tool producers made their technological
choices based on easy-to-perceive advantages rather than comprehensive cost-benefit assessment. This research breaks the traditional academic boundaries between stone and bone artefacts, providing an exceptional archaeological case study in which the production
patterns, tool kits, raw material availability, technical styles, and social traditions were all taken into consideration for a more complete picture of technological organization and choices in prehistory.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

based on skeletal elements that normally would not be considered for distinguishing among adult age classes. The results show that Neolithic communities were highly selective about bone raw materials even when the preferred materials—those from older adult
animals—were less commonly available to tool makers. Our data also demonstrate that the approaches developed in this research for reconstructing animal mortality patterns using water buffalo scapulae are applicable to other ungulate scapulae that have been
transformed into tools or oracle bones in prehistoric and historic cultures. <o:p>
